Can I use the Denali data feed with Interactive Brokers TWS execution. In other words, using the Denali feed and my spreadsheet generates a signal, will that signal be executed by IB??? I wonder cuz the symbols used by Denali are not the same that IB uses. I trade the SP 500 mini contracts.

Simply question I know
Thanks,
RK

This is fully supported. Refer to the following:
Real-Time Exchange Data Feeds Available From Sierra Chart: Integration with Trading Services

If you go to File >> Find Symbol when you are connected to your Interactive Brokers account, you will see that the Futures symbols reflect the Interactive Brokers symbols. We change these depending on what service you are connected to.

Just keep in mind that this does not automatically update for existing charts. When you change your service and select OK on the Data/Trade Service Settings it will ask you if you want to update the symbols for the currently selected service, and you should say 'Yes' to this question. If you do not, or if you need to update your symbols for whatever reason - you can select Edit >> Update Symbols to Current Service, which will do this for you.

Note that some symbols (the U.S. Stocks, in particular) do not have this setup. In these cases you would need to use the Trade and Current Quote Symbol where the primary symbol is our symbol for the instrument and then the Trade and Current Quote Symbol is the IB symbol. Refer to the following:
Chart Settings: Trade and Current Quote Symbol (text box) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu)
